I had the double decker foam added to the seat and they narrowed the front of the seat.

The seat is much better now.

I had the memory foam mod, front and back done to mine.

Don't see how it could sit much better than it does now. Much, much better than before.

The wife agrees, she is very happy with the improvement on the rear seat.

Allen is a great guy, call him, he will fix it right up.

Had my 04 ultra done in '07, lowered 2 inches, narrowed on sides and memory foam installed. Nearly 4 years later and still is in great shape. Allen does a great job! +1.

Double decker memory foam front and back and gel pad for me. I have about 2500 miles on the seat now. I was just thinking yesterday how happy I am with the comfort with the seat. I don't think a more comfort seat exists.

Had Double decker memory foam installed front and back on my stock seat. MUCH better riding than the mustang touring seat I tried before going to MCC. This MCC modified stock seat has now been cross country and many 500+ mile weekends. Very happy with the results and the report from the back seat is good as well. The guys at MCC were very helpful by phone and answered all my questions before I sent the seat in - and good turn-a-round by appt. Very happy with the whole deal.
